Just one of those days.

Okay, so I know we all have them, but seriously. "One of those days." Yesterday was something else. My body is falling apart. I have this lame sinus infection (self-diagnosed, but I'm pretty sure I'm right) and therefore have used up about 8 boxes of tissue in the past 48 hours, a consequent throbbing and continuous migraine headache that rolls into spasms at every movement or loud noise (heh...perfect for a mother of 2 toddlers, no?), dried and cracking skin under my nose from blowing it, zits galore in the most strategically prominent places possible, a cracked and borderline infected lip from when my darling child head-butted me that splits every time I talk or smile. I'm sure there's more, but even the typing hurts my head. I'm very pretty and fun to be around, ask my family.

Believe me, I know I shouldn't complain - I'm well aware that my troubles are miniscule in the grand scheme of things. And I know I should be grateful for times like this that make me appreciate the good ones. But every once in a while (i.e., today), this girl's going to throw herself a fine pity party before moving on to more uplifting topics. Just "keepin' it real" (thanks, Randy Jackson).

Who's with me?

How about a big electronic hug ()

I hope you are feeling better soon, and send those cuties over to my house for a "sleep-over" where sleep is optional. You know I mean it. How about Friday?

Brittney!!!!!!!!!! Have you been to the doc?? You've been sick forever! I'm thinking antibiotics. I'm also thinking SEND YOUR KIDS OVER TODAY! I'll call you! Poor little lamb.

Britt, may I also add it's a relief for the rest of us when you throw a little pity party now and again. Mine occur about thrice daily.

I am sorry to hear that Britt. "Those" days come far too often sometimes. Some day I hope that a "those" type a day means good things, even boring things. Keep smiling!

Yes, I gave Danny permission to request picture...is that so wrong? I know what you mean about it being "one of those days". I'm kind of having one of those years... heh.

Family photo on your banner---so great, Britt.
800 boxes of tissues, hun? That is a sad, sad day. But you make it sound so funny.
